AUSTRALIA-MINING-ACCIDENT-RESCUE

Australian miner Brant Webb (R) waves to the camera as he arrives at Launceston Hospital as his wife Rachel (L) watches after being trapped deep underground for two weeks with fellow miner Brant Webb and rescued 09 May 2006 from the Beaconsfield Gold Mine, in the Australian island state of Tasmania. The two miners were working nearly a kilometre (half a mile) underground at Tasmania's Beaconsfield Gold Mine when an earth tremor caused a rockfall on April 25, and were in a steel cage on a hydraulic arm attached to a vehicle known as a telehandler when the roof of the tunnel collapsed.
